We’re big fans of the long-lost, full-sized, two-door SUVs and prefer unusual ones. Think 78-79 Bronco and any Ramcharger. Blazers don’t qualify as unusual without something special. Thia one’s a “Feathers” edition. We don’t know what that’s about, but it’s certainly different…
This appears to be in decent shape with an engine from a 1986 Corvette. Fear not, the original is also included in the sale. Sad news is that the original four-speed is long-gone. There’s a bit of rust, but it doesn’t look TOO bad.

Things look normal from this angle, but what’s that decal on the glove box?
Yep, it says “Feathers by Chevy.”
TPI clearly isn’t original.
But, hey, there’s the original engine!

You are looking at a 1972 Chevrolet Blazer with the original Feathers package. This Blazer was sold new in Colorado and remained there until about 15 years ago when it was brought to Kansas. This Blazer has a 350 tuned port injection engine out of a 1986 Corvette. It runs absolutely wonderful and I have the original numbers matching complete engine that goes with the sale also. It was born a 4 speed but was changed to an automatic when the engine swap was done. I do not have the original 4 speed transmission. It also has a different transfer case that can be configured for different gear ratios for the front and the back axles I’m told this is for rock climbing? It does have a 4 inch suspension lift with larger tires. It is a really good solid Colorado Blazer with the exception of the passenger side rocker panel, a small hole in the drivers side floor board and a little rust in the tail gate. It is the factory color combination and it appears that most of the paint is original.
I have owned quite a few 72 Blazers in the past 25 years and finding one with the original feathers decals is very difficult these days. I have an original Chevrolet “feathers” ad that will go with the sale also. In addition to that I have the original owners manual, protect o plate, and smog book. This is a great original Blazer, bid with confidence!
